shark64 Posted January 13 Author Share Posted January 13 For some reason I have been fighting painting Toolbox, I am not so sure I like the way it turned out. I am also wondering if my base is not too small..so many questions lately. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Base is beautiful... but yes, it needs to be bigger to do justice to the scene. To my (armchair expert) eyes, anyway. What's your concern with the toolbox? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterpools Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Oliver Looking mighty good and the scene is wonderfully detailed. I do agree with Kirk that the dio feels cramped and as if all the details are being squeezed together to fit the narrow base, with no breathing room for the eye to wander and explore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark64 Posted January 14 Author Share Posted January 14 Yep new base for sure. looks like 36x8.5 is needed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 It wouldn't look wrong on 50 x 20 but it might be a challenge to store! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterpools Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Oliver How much bigger is the new dio base going to be compared to the old one? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a few inches on each side. I also forgot to account for the folding blades. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterpools Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Oliver, Awesome and easy to see, you are never satisfied with close to perfection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark64 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 Pete you are so right, not satisfied. here's the new one. different dimensions and added side table. I also change the spray nozzle and the wheels on the extinguisher. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I thought the last toolbox was great. What do I know. The thing that stands out to me most in this last update is how unrealistic the figure looks in comparison with all the scratch-built jewellery. Let's hope Reedoak come up trumps in time for this diorama's completion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I talked to Norbert about figures but I found someone else instead, he's designing them for my dio. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Are these scan- or CAD-based? I'm rapidly coming to the view that the battle between 3D scanned figures and all other techniques is a non-contest. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterpools Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Oliver The new figures look so good and Kirk assessment of the original figure was correct when compared to your incredible level of work. The bar keeps going up and up and what a ride. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
